Good Watch for Flying?

I had the fang-dangled pilot's watch in GA.....worthless.

after 15 years, what I reckon now in no particular order....

1. analog, wind adjustable makes it easy to change to the new time zone.
2. lightweight, for some reason it gets annoying at 4am in the seat - as does most things
3. has a light on it, easy to read the time to get out of the bunk
4. keeps time well, although the plane's come with the best clock out there
5. easily removed or better still, doesn't set off the detectors
6. not too expensive, you'll lose it at the hotel, security or somewhere, guaranteed.
7. doesn't look like a pilot's watch
